1T is said the Chicago Anarchists
those of them who are not detained
to fill engagements with the public
executioner, are perfecting a plan
for transferring themselves to the
island of San Domingo, on which
they propose to set up a republic
after their own hearts. The idea
is a good one, and we all hope it
will be carried out to the letter.
Besides getting rid Of most unde-
sirable class of people, it will at
once settle the long pending ques-
ton of the annexation of San Do
mingo. The United States will
never think of annexing the island
while it is inhabited by Anarchists.
